11 When the ear heard, then it blessed me,
And when the eye saw, then it approved me;
12 Because
aI delivered the poor who cried out,
The fatherless and
the one who had no helper.
13 The blessing of a perishing
man came upon me,
And I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.
14 aI put on righteousness, and it clothed me;
My justice
was like a robe and a turban.
15 I
was aeyes to the blind,
And I
was feet to the lame.
16 I
was a father to the poor,
And
aI searched out the case
that I did not know.
17 I broke
athe fangs of the wicked,
And plucked the victim from his teeth.
18 “Then I said,
a‘I shall die in my nest,
And multiply
my days as the sand.
